SAVE $10: As of Oct. 31, get ‘Sonic X Shadow Generations’ for Nintendo Switch for $39.99 at Woot. That’s a 20% discount.

Sonic fans have had it great over the past few years. Sure, there was a bit of a dry spell for a while, but the Blue Blur is back in a big way these days. His latest outing, Sonic X Shadow Generations isn’t a new game, per se, as it’s a remaster of a game called Sonic Generations with the addition of Shadow the Hedgehog as a new player character. But it’s well worth jumping into whether you’re an old or new Sonic fan, and it’s even better if you can get it on sale. And you can, right now.

As of Oct. 31, you can get Sonic X Shadow Generations for Nintendo Switch at Woot for $39.99. That’s $10 off and a discount of 20%. The game just debuted about a week ago, so you’re still getting in on the ground floor here — not too shabby of a deal. This is for the Switch edition only, and you’ll be getting a physical copy, not a digital code.

In 2011, Sonic Generations introduced a new series of Sonic levels with both classic side-scrolling and modern 3D options that delighted fans. Now remastered and including Shadow the Hedgehog, it’s an even larger game than before. Sonic and Shadow will be working together to take on an enemy called Black Doom throughout a varied selection of levels with open world gameplay like that seen in Sonic Frontiers. There are plenty of fun additional features for returning and new players to explore, but for many, Shadow will be the biggest draw.
